im trying webrtc for the first time for a video chat app , i want up to 3 person in each chat ... my code works fine with 2 person chat
but as soon as 3rd person joins the chat everything goes wrong ... i get multiple video tags in the page and none of them are from the 3rd pear .... i'd appreciate any pointers or suggestion most tutorials cover 2 person chat
here is working url
https://chate-test-3000.herokuapp.com/
here is my code
const PEARS = [];
var video_counter = 0 ;
const STREAMES = [] ;
var myVideoArea = document.querySelector('#myvideo');
var configuration = {
'iceServers': [{
'url': 'stun:stun.l.google.com:19302'
}]
};
var rtcPeerConn;
const ROOM = 'caht1';
const SIGNAL_ROOM = 'newsingal1234567898765';
io = io.connect("" , {transports:['websocket']});
io.emit('ready' , { chat_room : ROOM , signaling_room : SIGNAL_ROOM});
io.emit('signal' , { text :'ready for video ? ' , room : SIGNAL_ROOM , type : 'user_here'});
io.on('signlaing_message' , function(data){
console.log('signal recived');
console.log(data);
if(!PEARS.includes(data.pear_id))
{
console.log('adding new pear --- ' , data.pear_id);
PEARS.push(data.pear_id);
startSignaling(data.pear_id);
}
if (data.type != "user_here")
{
var message = JSON.parse(data.message);
if (message.sdp) {
rtcPeerConn.setRemoteDescription(new RTCSessionDescription(message.sdp), function () {
// if we received an offer, we need to answer
if (rtcPeerConn.remoteDescription.type == 'offer') {
rtcPeerConn.createAnswer(sendLocalDesc, logError);
}
}, logError);
}
else {
rtcPeerConn.addIceCandidate(new RTCIceCandidate(message.candidate));
}
}
})
function startSignaling(pear_id) {
if(!rtcPeerConn)
rtcPeerConn = new RTCPeerConnection(configuration);
// send any ice candidates to the other peer
rtcPeerConn.onicecandidate = function (evt) {
if (evt.candidate)
io.emit('signal',{"type":"ice candidate", "message": JSON.stringify({ 'candidate': evt.candidate }), "room":SIGNAL_ROOM});
displaySignalMessage("completed that ice candidate...");
};
// let the 'negotiationneeded' event trigger offer generation
rtcPeerConn.onnegotiationneeded = function () {
displaySignalMessage("on negotiation called");
rtcPeerConn.createOffer(sendLocalDesc, logError);
}
// once remote stream arrives, show it in the remote video element
rtcPeerConn.ontrack = function (evt) {
displaySignalMessage("going to add their stream...");
video_counter++ ;
let vid = 'video-box-'+video_counter ;
console.log('adding new STREAM !!')
console.log('###### streams ' , evt.streams);
if(!STREAMES.includes(evt.streams[0].id))
{
STREAMES.push(evt.streams[0].id);
$('#video-wrapper').append(`<video data-id="${evt.streams[0].id}" id="${vid}" autoplay loop autobuffer muted playsinline controls></video>`);
console.log(' video length ..... ' , $('#video-wrapper').find('#'+vid).length );
var theirVideoArea = $('#video-wrapper').find('#'+vid)[0];
console.log(theirVideoArea);
theirVideoArea.srcObject = evt.streams[0] ;
theirVideoArea.play();
}
};
// get a local stream, show it in our video tag and add it to be sent
navigator.getUserMedia = navigator.getUserMedia || navigator.webkitGetUserMedia || navigator.mozGetUserMedia;
navigator.getUserMedia({
'audio': true,
'video': true
}, function (stream) {
displaySignalMessage("going to display my stream...");
myVideoArea.srcObject = stream
myVideoArea.play();
for (const track of stream.getTracks()) {
rtcPeerConn.addTrack(track, stream);
}
}, logError);
}
function sendLocalDesc(desc) {
rtcPeerConn.setLocalDescription(desc, function () {
displaySignalMessage("sending local description");
io.emit('signal',{"type":"SDP", "message": JSON.stringify({ 'sdp': rtcPeerConn.localDescription }), "room":SIGNAL_ROOM});
}, logError);
}
function logError(error) {
$('#error-area').append(`<div> ${error.name} : ${error.message}</div>`);
}
function displaySignalMessage(text ){
$('#signal-area').append(`<div>${text}</div>`);
}
i also use a simple nodejs server for signaling and use socket.io to connect to the server
------------------------- EDIT - PEER.JS -----------------
here is my code after switching to peerjs
const SIGNAL_ROOM = 'zxsingalroom';
var MY_PEER_ID = '' ;

io = io.connect("" , {transports:['websocket']});
io.emit('ready' , { chat_room : ROOM , signaling_room : SIGNAL_ROOM});
var peer = new Peer({
config: {'iceServers': [
{ url: 'stun:stun.l.google.com:19302' },
]} /* Sample servers, please use appropriate ones */
});
peer.on('open', function(id) {
console.log('My peer ID is: ' + id);
MY_PEER_ID = id ;
io.emit('peer_id_offer' , { chat_room : ROOM , id : id});
});
peer.on('call' , function (call) {
navigator.mediaDevices.getUserMedia({ video : true , audio : true })
.then((stream) => {
call.answer(stream);
call.on('stream' , function(remoteStream){
if(!CurrentPeers.includes(call.peer))
{
CurrentPeers.push(call.peer);
addRemoteVideo(remoteStream);
}
})
})
.catch( (e)=>{
console.log('error2' , e );
});
})
io.on('peer_id_recived' , function(data){
console.log(`peer id recived : `);
console.log(data);
for (let [key, value] of Object.entries(data.peer_ids)) {
if(value.peer_id != MY_PEER_ID)
{
callPeer(value.peer_id);
}
}
});
function callPeer( id )
{
console.log('calling peers 1 .... ');
navigator.mediaDevices.getUserMedia({ video : true , audio : true })
.then( (stream) => {
console.log('calling peers 2 .... ' + id);
addOurVideo(stream);
let call = peer.call(id , stream);
console.log( typeof call);
call.on('stream' , function(remoteStream){
console.log('calling peers 3 .... ');
if(!CurrentPeers.includes(call.peer))
{
CurrentPeers.push(call.peer);
addRemoteVideo(remoteStream);
}
})
})
.catch( (e)=>{
console.log('error1' , e );
});
}
function addRemoteVideo(stream){
console.log(' adding remote stream!!!');
let total_perrs = CurrentPeers.length ;
let vid = `video-box-${total_perrs}`;
$('#video-wrapper').append(`<video id="${vid}" autoplay loop autobuffer muted playsinline controls></video>`);
var theirVideoArea = $('#video-wrapper').find('#'+vid)[0];
